Aria zoomed past, jamming her foot on the accelerator and going as fast as she could. She gritted her teeth. "I can see that."

Arian nodded. "Affirmative." She did as he asked, maneuvering her bulky ship horizontally.

Aria chuckled lightly, but when she spoke her voice was devoid of mirth. “What do you need?”

Aria nods. "Let's check it out. Most people wouldn't expect us to be in such seemingly treacherous territory."

“I think we also need a ‘home base’ of sorts. Somewhere we can park our ships and rest. It’s not sustainable to be in the air for the whole competition. Any thoughts of where we might have an advantageous landing area that qualifies?”

Aria nodded. “Agreed, but we still need to find a sustainable method of getting food and water. Thoughts of where we head next?”

@The Wandering Wizard

“Wait, can we go find the trees? There has to be both food and running water there.”

Aria followed in suit, matching the movements as best she could in the bulky Largo. “Is there a certain place you’re heading? Also, this is a good place to get supplies.”

“…I was… talking about making him do hand signs… You’re the one who broke his hand?” Aria shook her head. “We can talk about that later. For now, where do you want to head first?”

Aria laughed. “A bit sadistic, don’t you think? But I suppose Jock will be able to sign using his… other hand.” Her voice softened. “Tell him I send my best wishes.” @SmilingPanda19

@Lotus Blossom Aria's voice crackled through the headset. "You up for exploring a tad before we do anything serious?"

Aria shrugged. "No threats on this side. I think we'll be fine. Unless the others team up, we'll be able to deal with them. As for Sharp'i... why don't we try to avoid him for now? At least until we come up with a strategy; he'll probably be fairly difficult to kill." She paused. "Also... did something happen to Jock's hand?"

“Well what do you know? I figured if anyone could get a ship it would be you,” Aria said with a smirk. “By the way, how’s Jock doing?”

@Lord Spirit

Aria immediately turns the ship on and lifts off into the air, her eyes alight with mirth. She’s… probably not taking this quite as seriously as she should be. But then her eyes darken and for a second, and it seems as though she has never seen it as a game. Not at all. She fires at the second ship, intending to ruin any potential flight and attack capabilities. @SmilingPanda19

Aria’s arms start to sting from the flames, but she grits her teeth and continues onwards as fast as she can while still being careful. This pain. Pain is nothing. Pain is temporary. Pain- Is something I’ve felt before. Something that I’ve dealt with. Something I can deal with again. @SmilingPanda19

Aria mutters a curse under her breath, though her eyes flash with respect for the game makers. She pulls her shirt over her mouth as to limit intake of smoke and drops lower as she starts to scramble to the ship.

Aria scoots as fast as a scooting scooter can. @SmilingPanda19
